The Kano State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of TikTok skit maker, Murja Kunya Ibrahim for using vulgar language and corrupting the morals of the society in her videos.
The arrest of the skit maker was confirmed in a statement issued by the spokesperson of the command, SP Abdullahi Haruna Kiyawa.
According to Kiyawa, Murja was arrested at the Tahir Hotel in Kano while trying to book rooms for her guests who came from different places to attend her much-publicised birthday party.
The police spokesperson said that the arrest of the skit maker followed a request from a Sharia Court in Bichi to the state’s commissioner of police to arrest and investigate her alongside other TikTok users.
